Grammy-winning conductor JoAnn Falletta leads the Virginia Arts Festival Chamber Players, the Virginia Symphony Chorus and a long list of talented vocalists and soloists on three pieces composed at a crucial juncture in Stravinsky's musical life. The Soldier’s Tale, a small-scale theatrical work, is performed here in the suite premiered in 1920. The Octet marked a new element in Stravinsky’s writing, inaugurating a turn to Neoclassicism, while the pivotal Les noces is a ballet cantata impelled by dramatic motor rhythms, saturated in his Russian background.
